Hi all! New to the system and trying to figure some things out. After scrounging around the few topics about this, I have seen the way to route Vivox Service voice is through OnAudioFilterRead(). My question stands with the unity audio system. FMOD suggests disabling the built-in unity audio system, however I’ve only been able to make OnAudioFilterRead() function with it enabled. Is there any workarounds to this, or do I need to keep Unity’s audio system on and ducktape a solution?

HI,

Disabling the Unity audio system is a recommendation to stop if from using resources that FMOD may need: [Unity Integration | Troubleshooting - Disabling Unity Audio](https://fmod.com/docs/2.02/unity/troubleshooting.html#disabling-unity-audio). If required, leaving Unity Audio enabled is ok, however, if you plan to support some platforms like Xbox One, iOS and PS5 it will have to be disabled.

hope this helps!
